A somewhat biased film reviewBy Gilad Atzmon: In her book Denying the Holocaust (1993), Deborah Lipstadt confessed that it was David Irving's considerable reputation as an historian that made him "one of the most dangerous spokespersons for Holocaust denial." "Familiar with historical evidence," she wrote, "he bends it until it conforms with his ideological leanings and political agenda." Irving responded by claiming that Lipstadt’s words were libellous and filed a legal case against her and her publisher Penguin Books.Was Irving brave or naïve in putting the Holocaust on trial? Probably both. Back in 1996, was Irving a hero or just grossly miscalculating in believing he stood a chance in taking on the Holocaust, still the most popular Jewish religion? Again, probably both.The other day, I watched Mick Jackson’s ‘Denial’. The film tells the story of Irving’s 2000 defeat in court - a disaster he voluntarily brought upon himself and indeed, Irving has clearly made some mistakes in his life. Yet, in 2017 it is impossible to deny that, back in 2000, Irving was well ahead of most of us.

Dear Imperial America: the lifestyle you ordered is permanently out of stock.

By Charles Hugh Smith: Our extraordinary misallocation of national treasure and political power has
set a banquet of consequences that few are willing to face, much less address
head-on. If we had to sum up this vast misallocation, we might start by
characterizing it as the result of a multitude of elites playing Empire with
money borrowed from future generations.

(Yes, I know solar energy is not "the
solution" due to intermittency, lack of storage, fossil fuels are needed
to build and maintain the solar infrastructure, etc.--but the point is: would
we be better off if we'd invested 20% of the money squandered on the Iraq
misadventure on alternative energy, even with all its limitations?)

By Vivien Mason: Being very thick-skinned is a prerequisite to being an MP and it helps you tackle criticism, particularly when you believe it is not justified, Tory MP for Shipley Philip Davies has said. Speaking with the Telegraph & Argus, Mr Davies said he was “at a loss” to understand why he was attacked for sticking up for equal rights and trying to knock-back Bills that were, he claims, a dog’s dinner. But he says the views of those who point a finger at him give him no sleepless nights and he vows to continue standing up for his constituency and for what he feels is right for the country. He refers to attacks by other MPs and other organisations over his attempt to block Bills aimed at protecting women only. Just before Christmas he tried to “filibuster” a Bill in Parliament to tackle violence against women because the Bill did not make any attempt to protect men.

By Hannah Wallen: What is GA HB 51?As described in Sage Gerard’s recent article, Support GA House Bill 51 to secure due process in universities, this is a proposed law which would bar institutions of higher learning from substituting unbalanced on-campus hearings and penalties for the legal system in cases of alleged student sexual misconduct. This would apply to universities, technical colleges, or any other postsecondary educational institution which is eligible for state tuition equalization grants. The text of the bill is available here:Georgia HB 51This would require postsecondary institution employees who receive information leading them to believe that a felony has been committed against or by a student or on the institution’s property would be required to forward that information to the appropriate authorities.This is not an unusual or abnormal requirement for professionals in care-related industries such as education. Various laws exist requiring teachers, school administrators, and school counseling personnel to report to appropriate authorities any suspected abuse of their students. Health care workers at all professional levels are also required to report suspected abuse, neglect, exploitation, or misappropriation of patient property or resources, drug diversion, and violations of patients’ medical or financial privacy. Childcare providers face similar requirements regarding abuse or neglect, as do care providers for the elderly and people with intellectual disabilities. Significant penalties can be leveled against professionals who violate these laws.

"One single secular and democratic state with equal rights for everyone, Christians, Muslims, and Jews,on all of historic Palestine.”

WAFA: Saeb Erekat, secretary general of the Palestine Liberation Organization, said Wednesday that the only alternative to the two state formula - one Palestinian and one Israeli - is a single secular and democratic state.

Speaking after a meeting with John Bercow, Speaker of the House of Commons of the UK Parliament at his office, Erekat said that the two-state solution was an international formula to solve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

Dear Reader

Are YOU Involved or Institutionalized? Our belief that the global economic crisis would persist and deepen is being vindicated and current events are now as clear as ever on the matter. Time for all of us to wake up, stand up and be counted or continue to lose all our liberties. Protect your homes and families. The sun will still rise but financial chaos and suffering due to the global fascist banksters' greed and corruption, slaughter due to the MIC's directed world wars in our name etc. is not pretty. We are feeling the effect on our society the size and like of which we have never known.

We are way past being surprised at the blanket suppression of this information by the BBC and main stream media propaganda machines. Information is clearly available elsewhere and unchallenged, accounts for a far more realistic rendition of what we have actually seen and what we continue to see develop, whilst the main stream news put out leaves many confused and bewildered, 99.9% of us wrong footed and the awakened indignant. As we can now see, the apparently 'soft fascist' powers that be aim to block these alternative avenues of information. Book up, "Long Live the Evolution."Feel free to kopimi. Angelo Agathangelou.

P.S. The MHRM, are calling out the constant misinformation disseminated by and maintain our open challenge especially to western radical feminists, to point out just one area where government in the UK, Europe or anywhere else in the English speaking world disadvantages women and girls when compared with men and boys, ...the wage disparity myth having long been debunked by serious academics and statisticians. So far this challenge has remained unanswered. Western feminism is obsolete.

George Orwell's Message: to everyone on the Internet

N.B.

These pages exist because we believe information from all perspectives should be aired, they do not necessarily reflect our views unless explicitly stated. We do not intend to cause offense, but we feel there is a need for such a shift in our society that to call it change rather than evolution would be an understatement. A velvet revolution towards living with reality for the individual, the family and society. A revolution towards living within our means and taking responsibility for ourselves, instead of mortgaging the future of our children to bloated leech faux democracy for the benefit of Ponzi 'banksters' and The Military Industrial Complex.
